This is the type of block voting from EU groups that will bring us to all out war with Russia. Careerist ghouls mindlessly pushing green or red buttons with no real thought given to the impact of their actions.

I know this new phenomenon of campaigning for a Ballon D'Or is agent/club led but the journalist who have a casting vote need to have a good look at the current situation and disqualify anyone/any club that is actively seeking their vote. Otherwise this once prestigious award will become worthless

Ferran Soriano & Khaldoon need to swallow their pride, apologise to the City players and fans that they have misled for years and resign immediately. As custodians of a 125 year old institution they are obligated to act in the clubs interest & do what they can to limit the damage they have caused.

The attempt by the FAI and the Irish squad to ostracise Gavin Bazunu has backfired in such a predictable manner. With overwhelming public support to #StopTheGame how did those who sidelined Gav think this would play out? Even by FAI standards, this is a clusterfuck of Saipanic proportions.

With every passing press conference, press release or player statement, support from fans for this current Irish team ebbs away. The intervening fixture against Austria on Oct 1st will be a litmus test to where we stand. The Aviva crowd may be more hostile toward the home side than the visitors.

I hope the Irish players dont embarrass themselves tomorrow night by staging some sort of meaningless protest on the pitch. Any show of solidarity will ring hollow after voting to play the game. # STOPTHEGAME #COYBIG

The Silicon Valley vampires are out there every other day pumping their stock with tales of AI armageddon, promoting their product as all powerful with the ability to end mankind. When in reality, its probably just going to kill economic growth by hogging resources and ultimately torpedo the FTSE.

The singularity will NEVER be reached by Altman or any of these unfuckable tech cretins. AI in its current form is thick as fuck and the idea that Wikipedia will become sentient if you just throw a load of computing power at it is as flawed as the rapists' who have financed this AI bubble.

Listen, Kinahan should face justice, but he should do so while being tried by a jury of his peers like everyone else, not a kangaroo court of three politically appointed judges. A jury could be assembled anywhere in the country with proceedings viewed via video link.Its time the SCC was abolished

The White House/ Pentagon have been well and truly been humbled by Iran. So much so they are now making wild claims without any evidence of Chinese-Russian collusion in an attempt to diminish the humiliation of Iran laying waste to US bases in the region.

So what happens if there's a few road deaths in quick succession, do FF/FG introduce a ban on cars? Do they fuck. This is yet another classist policy from official Ireland which does nothing to solve the problem. Adding e-scooters to learner permits (provisional)is an easy fix using existing laws.

Most of the 32 Imax screens in the USA showing the 70mm print of the Odyssey are booked up for the entire month. 2a.m. shows included. By creating scarcity, the studio has guaranteed bums on seats for selected cinemas. This will entice everyone to adopt Imax going forward.

Still thinking about the sequence on the island of Aeaea in The Odyssey. I think its safe to say, Nolan has again pushed envelope with what a major studio release can entail. #TheOdyssey

Go and see Nolans Odyssey for yourself. I did, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The online heat surrounding the casting is completely insignificant to the story and both Nyong'o and Page do well with the limited time they have onscreen as does the entire supporting cast.

In a deeply cynical move, Micheál Martin is publicly pushing for concensus on a EU trade embargo on Israeli goods,having privately been given the green light to do so by Washington.This isn't unilateral action.It's a pre agreed arrangement designed to limit the blowback against Israel for its crimes

This communication by voice note shit is not progress. I often sit there as she goes back and forth multiple times, sending a sentence at a time, dragging what would be a brief conversation into 20 part message marathon. Its as tedious as deciphering morse code. Can we just get back to phone calls?

Israel's new security policy stresses the importance of eradicating Hezbollah "from its root"in Lebanon. And by its root, they mean children. They are openly stating that in order to protect Israel they need to murder todays children before they grow up to become tomorrow's resistance. #BDS

The amount of accounts on here hyping up the Obama presidency with serious rose tinted jam jars on. Obama sold you all out. Yes the man seemed personable, respectable and presidential. But his promises of Hope & Change were bullshit. He's the reason Drumph is in the Whitehouse.

The rumoured relocation of Irelands qualifier against Israel is baffling. It looks as though the FAI and maybe even our government are jumping through hoops to accommodate an ICC indicted regime, completely disadvantaging ourselves in the process. This is madness. #StopTheGame

I feel the closer to battle we come the more difficult a sell this will be for the EU and for Irish politicians in particular. However I take nothing for granted. Between now and 2030 its up to all of us in the anti war movement to do all we can to prevent this catastrophe from ever occurring. ✌️

Our governments current position is at odds with the public on this issue. The people of Ireland value our neutrality, while the war lobby and the lads in Fine Gael/Fianna Fail want Irish troops to be fully integrated into an EU army and paying a pretty penny on defence for the privilege.

even though we all know their thinly veiled arms industry sponsored propaganda is aimed squarely at Putin. Its difficult to tell where Ireland will be when the first shots of this war are fired. If we'll be on the front line or supporting NATO from our longstanding position of pseudo-neutrality.

the war drum to the same rhythm as Germany, Britain or France. They have to be a little more careful with their rhetoric. Up to now FF and FG have chosen to not to speak about Europe's plans for war, they talk about our lack of preparedness in a uncertain world but dont point to Russia specifically

Maurice @modalton.bsky.social · 07/06/2026
least they're being open about the intent. They have to be. In order to manufacture consent for such an endeavour you need a willing nation, united in its belief that Russia poses an existential threat. The Irish government doesn't have that option. As a supposed neutral nation they cannot beat

informing its citizens that by 2030 Germany and its NATO allies will be at war with Russia and the country must act accordingly, retool it's economy and build a war machine capable of taking on the old enemy in a fight to the death. They're a little vague on the reasons for war of course, but at
